The Original Frontier Favorite – A Hearty Bean Soup for Big Gatherings

Our Minnesota Heartland Eleven Bean Soup is where it all began. Back in 1983, company founder Trisha Anderson brought a hand-packaged version of this colorful, hearty bean blend to a local holiday market—and sold out in no time. That simple, homemade recipe, inspired by her mother’s way of turning pantry staples into soul-warming meals, became the first ever Frontier Soups product.

This soup is a beautiful medley of eleven beans, peas, and lentils, full of flavor, texture, and old-fashioned goodness. Simmer it slow and low with kielbasa sausage and chicken for a rich, satisfying meal that serves a crowd. Perfect for Sunday suppers, winter nights, or any time you’re craving true homemade comfort.

This is more than just a bean soup—it’s our history in a bowl. Gather your family, stir the pot, and taste the tradition that started it all.
